Holika Dahan 2022- People are confused about Holika Dahan whether Holika Dahan should be celebrate on March 17 or on March 18. However, according to astrologers, Holika Dahan should be organized only on March 17.
Mythology of Holika Dahan- According to mythological beliefs, Prahlad, the eldest son of Hiranyakashipu, was an ardent devotee of Lord Vishnu. Prahlad continued to worship Vishnu in spite of his father . Despite being the son of a demon, Prahlad became a great devotee of Narayan . Asuradhipati Hiranyakashyap also tried many times to kill his son, but Lord Narayan himself protect him. Holika, the sister of the Asura king, had blessed from Lord Shankar, that she could not be burnt by fire even if she sit on fire. Holika took Prahlad in her lap and sat on the fire. But Holika got burnt. Thus, like many other Hindu festivals, Holika-Dahan is also a symbol of good over evil.
